Congress Is Root Of All Problems: PM

Under Congress rule, India lagged behind others’

- 

Coming out heavily against the Congress party in Maharashtra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the grand old party is the “originator” of all the problems faced by the country, ranging from the issues of terrorism, naxalism to the violence in Kashmir.

He further said that under Congress rule, India lagged behind other countries that gained independence at the same time.

Addressing the public meeting on Monday, PM Modi said, “It is the responsibility of political parties to resolve people’s issues but the Congress Party is the root of all problems in the country. Since Independence, who has been responsible for the country’s partition on the basis of religion? Who was responsible for the problem in Kashmir? So many countries got independent at the same time, and went ahead. Which party was in power for the maximum time?”

“The country faced the wrath of terrorism for decades. Bomb blasts were a common thing those days. Who gave protection to terrorists just for appeasement? The problem of Naxalism got out of hand, who was responsible for this ‘red terror’?” he added while slamming Congress for not taking action against terrorism.
